Stacking the Shelves

I’ve been a bit naughty in the last week. In my defence, there was a signing in a bookshop and my sister insisted I get one of the books below. Uh. That’s a good defence, right?

Acquisitions

I forgot about the issues with Full Fathom Five when I picked up Dorothy Must Die; that was the one my sister wanted me to get, because of Ollie the talking monkey. I feel a little bad about that.

Arrivals

These have been on order for a while and finally arrived this week!

Library

Those with long memories will know I actually owned the first four already (and I’ve read Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell before), but I thought I’d grab them in dead tree to see if it would poke me to get on with it and read them!

So overall, a very satisfying haul for me! Must put some of these on the June TBR list, since the May one was a success for me. How’s everyone else been doing? Lots of new books? Exciting library trips? Self-control and budgeting?

Okay, I am super disappointed that I forgot about the issues with Frey, because I love Dorothy Must Die and its sequels and I want to keep reading them, dang it.

I am very interested to see what you think about Leckie’s books, because I legitimately do not know how I feel about them. I read the first one last year, right before the Hugos, and I am thinking about doing a reread to see if my opinion changes a second time around.

Great haul! Dorothy Must Die and Landline are two that I’ve seen around quite a lot. I can’t wait until I finally get the chance to read them. I hope you have a good week!
